I would love to see Alissa up there in any spot. But if by some miracle that were to happen, there would just be too much pressure leading up to the Olympics.

 

[Tonichelle]

Alissa. Let this be her year.

Of the ladies listed, Alissa gets my vote - although I'd also like to see Rachael Flatt up there!

 

[HCOSurfer]

Alissa

Team Japan

I'd love to see Mao, Miki and Fumie all on the podium in any order. A clean sweep for Japan. Same goes for Vancouner 2010.

That's gonna be scary!
Well, US had great victorious moment like that several times, right?

Alissa, Joannie, and Cynthia. I really want "older" skaters to have their turns to medal. Especially Joannie since I think she may not be around too long after Olympics.

 

[NatachaHatawa]

Yu-Na, and this time Gold!

Artisticly, she's the best. She could skate to anything and it would really be beautiful.

Mao comes as a close second for my fave.

I just felt like making a poll as i never tried to make one before. I myself chose Joannie Rochette as she has been a strong skater for years but never been so close as this year to be in a position where she can challenge for a medal. I would be happy with a medal of any colour as Worlds is always so difficult. Of course i would expect the other medalists to be Kim and Ando, but would like to see Cynthia Phaneuf medal one day. It is nice to see so many hoping for Alissa Czisny to do so well as some other threads were not sounding too supportive before.

 

[Spun Silver]

I expect and want Mao to medal, and I really want Miki to as well. Joannie too. Unfortunately Yu Na is probably not going to give up "her" spot.

As much as I like Rachael and Alyssa I'll be very surprised if they beat any of these four.

At the '92 Worlds.

It was Worlds in 1991 (Kristi, Tanya, and Kerrigan)

Since Torino I have wanted to see Fumie win a world title since imo she should have gotten bronze at the Olypmics.

maybe even silver every time I think about it I get angry.

Would be a material boost to publicity/marketing/sentiment if Alissa or Rachael could get on the podium at a Worlds in the US.

When was the last time that worlds was in the US that a US lady did NOT get on the podium? You would have to go back to 1969 (!?!) in Colorado Springs where no US lady made it on to the podium.

Kiira Korpi!

I'd like to see Yu-Na at the first place this time and I hope that one day Sarah Meier will win any World's medal

Joannie!! It's been far too long since a Canadian lady stood on that podium!
It would be fantastic to see Cynthia up there too

 

[PolymerBob]

I think Joannie has an excellent chance of making the podium. :thumbsup:
